Mostyn6 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Been playing this almost 2 weeks, having been the outsider in a chat about it in the office. My tactic is to do two totally different words, with 10 different letters, unless my first word turns up 3 or 4 greens. I tend to do it in 3 or 4. Had a 5 in the week.

Hard mode prevents you from doing that. If you get a green or yellow letter from any guess, you have to use that letter again in your next guess.

I prefer Nerdle - you have 6 guesses to determine a mathematical equation containing 8 terms or numbers, e.g. 7x7+7=56 Another good one is Quordle - you have 9 guesses to determine 4 5-letter words (and believe me, it usually takes 8 or 9 to get them all). I had a dodgy pint Friday night . On Saturday morning i was playing ...... Turdle ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Here's an interesting problem which will take some time..... Using the digits 1,2,3 and 4 once only on the LHS of each equation plus mathematical symbols, produce equations in turn giving solutions for all numbers between 1 and 100. BODMAS rules, of course I'll set you off... 12 / 4 - 3 = 1 (4 + 2) - (1 + 3) = 2 (1 * 2) + 4 - 3 = 3 14 / 2 - 3 = 4 I did this about 40 years ago and it took me several lunch hours at work. Some are very tricky indeed. TigerTedd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfie Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Easy 2 for me today. Massively helped by my go-to first word giving me 3 in the right place and one in the wrong place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
